OUT OF THE HOUSE. Reporter: WELL, JANELLE, THIS IS BOB HERE. I CAN TELL YOU WHAT I SAW, THAT OFFICER, THEY HAVE STORMED THE HOUSE. THEY HAVE BEEN DOING IN THIS IN THE STANDOFF FOR 18 HOURS, FINALLY STORMED THAT HOUSE. WE HEARD A NUMBER OF GUNSHOTS. WE WERE ACTUALLY GETTING READY TO DO THE LIVE SHOT AT NOON NOT AWARE THAT ANYTHING WAS GOING TO HAPPEN LIKE THIS UNTIL ALL OF A SUDDEN WE SEE THE OFFICERS GO IN. WE HEARD FOUR OR FIVE GUNSHOTS GO OFF, AND THEN WE SEE THE OFFICERS COME RUNNING BACK OUT, AND JUST TO KIND OF TAKE YOU INTO THAT MOMENT, IF WE COULD, LET'S PLAY SOME OF THAT SOUND AND THAT VIDEO OF THE MOMENT THAT WE SAW THE GUNFIRE THAT APPEARS TO HAVE MIGHT HAVE BROUGHT THIS SITUATION TO AN END. [ GUNFIRE ] THAT WAS THE KIND OF VOLLEY OF SHOTS THAT WE HEARD HERE. AFTER THAT WE SAW A NUMBER OF GAS CANISTERS THROWN IN AS WELL OUT OF PRECAUTION, JUST IN CASE THIS MAN DID SURVIVE ALL THAT HAVE GUNFIRE THAT WAS SHOT INTO THE HOUSE BACK THERE. I CAN TELL YOU THIS ALL STARTED AROUND 2:00 WHEN THERE WAS A ROBBERY AT A PHARMACY. THE PHARMACY IN LATROBE, A MAN WITH A HANDGUN, WHAT WE'RE TOLD IS A SMALL HANDGUN, WENT INTO THE STORE AND ROBBED OF IT OXYCONTIN AND ESCAPED IN A WHITE CAR. A WITNESS GOT THE LICENSE NUMBER AND THEY CALLED POLICE AND WENT TO THE HOUSE WHERE THAT CAR WAS REGISTERED. THAT THEN LED THEM BACK TO THIS HOUSE ON LLOYD AVENUE IN LATROBE BECAUSE APPARENTLY THE MAN IN THAT HEMPFIELD TOWNSHIP HOME HAD LET SCOTT MURPHY, THE MAN WHO LIVES IN THIS HOUSE, TO BORROW THE CAR. SCOTT MURPHY'S PARENTS WERE IN THE HOUSE, BROUGHT OUT AND MURPHY REFUSED. THEY TRIED TO TAKE HIM OUT. WHEN THIS ALL STARTED IT WAS DAYLIGHT YESTERDAY. IT GOT DARK. OFFICERS CUT THE POWER TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD SO THAT SCOTT MURPHY COULD NOT SEE OUT OF HOUSE AND THEY COULD SEE HIM IN VIA VERY BRIGHT FLOODLIGHTS OUT IN THE STREET. THEY TRIED FOR HOURS TO TALK TO HIM. HE WOULD NOT COMMUNICATE WITH THEM. FINALLY EARLY THIS MORNING IN THE EARLY MORNING HOURS HE CALLED STATE POLICE ON HIS OWN. WE DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHAT HE SAID BUT AFTER THAT THERE WAS NO MORE COMMUNICATION. POLICE WENT INTO THE HOUSE AND THREW TEAR GAS IN THERE, OVER AND OVER. DOZENS OF TEAR GAS CANISTERS THROWN IN THERE TO FORCE HIM TO COME OUT FROM THE SHEER PAIN OF ALL OF THE GAS BURNING HIS EYES THAT. DIDN'T WORK. THEY WENT OVER A LOUDSPEAKER TO TELL HIM TO COME OUT WITH HIS HANDS UP, IF THEY CAME OUT AND DID NOT FIGHT HIM, THAT HE WOULD NOT GET HURT. THEY TRIED SAYING THAT HE WAS BEING A LITTLE GIRL. THEY SAID DON'T BE A LITTLE GIRL, COME OUT. DON'T BE A WUSS, COME OUT. THEY SAID YOUR MOTHER AND SISTER ARE BIGGER MEN THAN YOU ARE, AND THAT DIDN'T WORK EITHER. THEY SENT IN A ROBOT, A SMALL ROBOT TO GO INSIDE TO TRY TO SEE WHAT THE SITUATION WAS, AND IT STAYED IN THERE. HAVEN'T SEEN IT COME BACK OUT. MIGHT STILL BE INSIDE THAT HOUSE. IF YOU CAN LOOK AT THE LIVE PICTURE, SOME OF THE HOUSE OUT THERE, DON'T KNOW IF THAT PERSON IS RELATED AT ALL TO SCOTT MURPHY OR WHAT THE SITUATION IS, BUT THESE PEOPLE HUG OUT IN THE FRONT YARD HERE WITH ALL THE NEIGHBORS HAVE BEEN OUTSIDE DURING THIS ENTIRE ORDEAL, 19-HOUR ORDEAL. FINALLY POLICE THREW THE ROBOT IN AND GAS CANISTERS AND CAN SEE THEM RUNNING FROM THE ARMORED CARRIER, RAMMED IT SEVERAL TIMES AND THE LAST TIME THEY WENT IN THERE WE HEARD FOUR TO FIVE GUNSHOTS. IMMEDIATELY S.W.A.T. TEAM MEMBERS CAME RUNNING BACK OUT OF HOUSE CARRYING ONE OF THEIR OWN. THAT'S THE MOST FRIGHTENING SITUATION YOU CAN IMAGINE WHEN THIS KIND OF THING HAS BEEN GOING ON, ESPECIALLY FOR THIS LONG. POLICE OBVIOUSLY FOR GOOD REASON FRANTICALLY TELLING EVERYONE TO GET OUT OF WAY AND PUSHING US BACK AND TELLING US TO TURN OUR CAMERA OFF AS THEY LOADED THE OFFICER INTO THE BACK OF THE CARRIER AND INTO AN AMBULANCE TO BE TAKEN TO A HOSPITAL TO BE TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL TO GET MORE TREATMENT. WE'RE TOLD THAT THAT POLICE OFFICER APPEARS LIKE HE'S GOING TO BE OKAY. HE WAS GRAUZED IN THE HEAD BY THE BULLET FROM WHAT WE'RE TOLD, NOT A LIFE-THREATENING INJURY. HE WAS ABLE TO MOVE AS HE WAS BEING PUT IN THE BACK OF THAT AMBULANCE SO THAT AT LEAST IS A GLIMMER OF GOOD NEWS FROM THE SITUATION, BUT RIGHT AFTER THAT THE OFFICERS GOT BACK IN THAT CARRIER AND WENT RIGHT BACK UP TO THE HOUSE AT FULL SPEED DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. WENT INSIDE, AND AT THAT MOMENT WE HEARD MORE GUNSHOTS. THEY GOT ON THE ROOF AND STARTED FIRING INTO THE HOUSE AS WELL. PIECES OF THE HOUSE WERE JUST FLYING EVERYWHERE. ALL OF THESE GUNSHOTS, AND AFTER 20 MORE MINUTES OR SO THEN WE FINALLY HAD CONFIRMATION THAT THE CORONER WAS GOING TO BE COMING OUT HERE, SO IT APPEARS
